What is the study of evolution?
population genetics
What are the five ideas that must happen for Hardy-Weinbergs Genetic Equilibrium to occur? no mutations, individuals do not leave or enter the population, population is large, random mating, natural selection does not occur.
What is it called when allele frequencies in a population change?
Assortative mating is when the selection of a mate is based on what? similar characteristics
In selection, individuals with the average trait have the highest fitness. stabilizing selection
In directional selection individuals display what form of a trait? the extreme trait
Sexual selection is based upon what? certain traits
What is more reliable, morphology or biological species concept? biological
Rapid genetic change is during what? puncuated equilibrium
